scsbs and sores, and from which q sticky fluid
poured out, causing intense itching and distress,
and leaving the hair matted and lifeles. I'm.
derneath these scabs the skin WAS raw. like Z
piece OF beefsteak. Gradually the hair csme oft
and was destroyed. until but = small patch WAS
len at the back Of the head. Ny friends in Pea

night he would scatch his head until his pillow
was covered with blood. | used 10 tie his hands
behind him, and in many WAYS tried 10 prevent
his scratching; but IL was no uc, no would
scratch. Il took him Ia the hospital aud 10 the

About this time, some niends, who had been
cured by the CUrIuuRA REMEDIES, prevailed
upon me 10 try them. ] began 10 ase them on
the 18th OF January last. In seven mouths eyep

A NEW
A Proposition to Inaugurate n Public BATH
ing Establishment on the South Side.

A Proposition to I~naugurate u Public Bath
ing Establishment on the South Side.
For some time past the Board of Direc-
tors of the Alhambra rink have been look
ing about for some use to which the big
cdifce could be put which would bring in
q revenue consistent with the very cOnsid-
cradle amount of capital invested. At
first a proposition to turn the building
into a market house met with considerable
favor, but after being talked over for a
time the idea vas dropped. Thursday
evening a meeting of the Dfrec-
tors was held, at which
the idea of fitting up the rink for an i'm
mense bathing establishment was broached
and discussed at considerable length. The
idea met with such favor that the matter
was placed in the hands of a committee to
formulate plans, secure estimates, and re-
port at a meeting to be held at a future
day. The proposition embraces the fitting
up of dreSsing rooms, large tanks adapted to
adults and children, private bath rooms,
&c, the temperature of the water being
graduated by steam pipes, and a constant
flow secured.
Such enterprises are successful In other
cities, and the projectors Of the plan are
enthusiastic regarding 1T.

TO TAKE 'EM ALL In.
TIE CHARACTER OF THE YOUNG MEMS
DEMOCRATIC CLUB TO Be CHANGED
From Purely 8 Marching Club 10 OOe Of
General Naturs-Last Nights Meeting
and the Business Transacted.

In response to the urgent call for a fuli
meeting of the Young Mems Democratic
Club, for last evening, a large proportion
of the members assembled in the elegant
hall of the club on Twelfth street, and an
interesting meeting resulted. The main
object of the meeting was to effect a radi-
cal change in the organization, and one
that will be appreciated and taken advan-
tage of by many.
There are many Democrats in the city
who would gladly identify themselves with
the club were it not for the expense incl
dent upon purchasing uniforms and the
time occupied in drilling and marching,
and as the organization has heretofore been
purely a marching club, all members were
required to uniform. The purpose of the
meeting then, was to so alter and recon-
struct the bylaws and constitution of the
organization, that persons desiring to
Join could take part in the deliberations
of the body and either join the uniform
ed division or not, at their pleasure. This
conclusion was arrived ut after many
Democrats had expressed their desire to be-
come members under those conditions.
Mr.. J. l.. Burt last evening offered a
resolution providing for the appointment
of q committee of three members to lake
this matter in charge and make the neces-
sary changes in the. bylaws and constitp-
ton to bring about aud cover the proposed
changes; and to strike out the clause I'M
posing a fine upon all absentees ut regular
meetings. The committee was appointed
by the President and instructed to report
at the next meeting of the club.
The action on the part Of the club will
have the effect of bringing together a large
number of our Democratic brethren, who
will embrace the opportunity extended
them, and will result in untold good to the
party and its organization in the city and
county, and also make its influence felt all
over the State. There is a good Demo-
cratic working majority in Wheeling, and
there is no reason why it should be allow
ed to 90 by default, thus not only throw
ing the party out of power, hut setting q
poor and discouraging example for other
Democratic communities. Organization is
the watchword and hustle the key to
success.
A great deal of discussion vas also in
dulged in during the meeting upon vari-
ous matters of interest to to the Club. In
reference to the Senatorial question the
following resolution was offered and adopt
ed, which brought out a number of
forcible speeches pertinent thereto;
Be it Resolved by the Young Mems
Democratic Club of Wheeling, That we
heartily commend and most cordially en-
dorse the course of Messrs. Charles j.
Gleason, A. ID. Garden and ]. j. Woods,
the three Democratic members Of the Leg
~islature from Ohio county, during the past
session, and hope that in the coming extra
session they will adopt the same course
upon the Senatorial and other unsettled
questions.

"a Very Cold DAY.

On Monday evening next that charming
musical ahsurdity, "A Cold Day When

of it: The presentation Of "A Cold Day
At the Fourteenth Street Theatre last night
was witnessed by an unusually large audi
ence, and, Judging from the continuous
and uprOariOus laughter, the piece is a
success. Mr.. Frank Wills as Jacob Blow
and Mr.. Fisher as Able Effort are rs funny
a pair rs ever seen. Miss Heath played
Dido with dash and an air of coquetry that
was in keeping with the part. Miss Shell
don created much laughter by her per

deck all the time" Miss Height was
charming rs Nancy. She is very pretty
and graceful, and displays more than ordi-
nary ability. MessrS Angler and Ashley
were very good in their respective charac-
tiers, and aided in the fun-making. The
music and dancing are a strong feature,
and the fun is fast and turiOus throughout.

THE usual treatment of catarrh is very
unsatisfactory, as thousands of despairing
patients can testify. On this point a
trustworthy medical writer says: Proper
local treatment is positively necessary ia
success, but many, if not most of the rem.
edies in general use by physicians, afford
but temporary benefit. A cure certainly
cannot be expected from snuffs, powders,
douches and washes" Ely's Cream Balm
is a remedy which combines the important
requisites of quick action, specific curative
power, with perfect safety and pleasant
ness to the patient.
